The Mac OS X sucks
(written by Lawrence Krubner, however indented passages are often quotes)
I am about to buy a Mac. I worry about the lack of a package manager. I thought this criticism of Max OS X was on the mark:
SourceBut the real problem with OS X is that it tries to be Windows and Linux at the same time and fails miserably. For me as linux user the most important detail of linux is missing: the package manager. But at the same time the beloved setup.exes are missing. Dmgs with application bundles are a nice thing in theory but they don’t work out that well. There are neither uninstallation tools norr do they provide a user experience that makes sense. The OS X mouse behavior is ridiculous and installing applications via drag/drop is just crazy. The first thing I did when I got my Mac was dragging the Firefox out of the DMG into the Dock. Then I noticed that I want to have it in the applications too and draged it there. What happened? I deleted it. The same way I managed to delete a file when moving from my harddrive to a network share. I lost the wireless connection and the file was lost. That’s ridiculous and must never ever happen on an operating system. Application management on OS X is stupid anyways. To fully remove an application from your computer you better buy a shareware that is better as that. Seems like most functionallity you want to have on a computer comes as third party application on OS X.
